How can i care my nails ?

1. Do's





'; Leave your nails without nail polish once in a while atleast inorder to allow them to breathe.





'; Keep a pack of hand lotion or cream near the kitchen sink and use it each time after washing your hands.





'; Wear gloves while doing housework or gardening and rub some hand cream or lotion before putting on the gloves.





'; Apply oil to your nails whenever possible inorder to strengthen them.





'; Include ample quantities of calcium and vitamin A in your daily diet.





'; Keep your manicure set clean inorder to prevent any infection.





'; Have a professional manicure done atleast once a month.





'; Cut nails straight-sided with slightly rounded tips to look fingers longer and more slender. This shape looks very nice on short nails too.





'; Before doing chores like dusting or gardening, first dig the nails into a soap bar. This prevents dirt from getting embedded under them and also make them easier to clean later.





'; A hand massage will boost your circulation and encourage nail growth.





2. Don'ts





'; Do not use nails or blades to remove nail polish use only nail polish remover.





'; Don't file nails when they are damp.





'; Don't cut cuticles





'; Don't wash clothes or dishes in very hot water





'; Don't bite or chew your nails.





'; Don't clean your nails with a sharp metal instrument - use a nail brush and orange stick instead.





'; Don't be seen with chipped nail polish - it is a sign of careless grooming.





'; Don't leave your hands in detergent for long.





'; Don't peel-off your nail polish as you wish to - always use a nail-polish remover.





1. Nail Polish Selection. Whenever we use nail polish, we should select the shade carefully. Deep toned polish looks good on long and slender nails. Pale colours make short nails look longer and they also look good on small, delicate-looking hands.





2. Nail- Length Decision. As regards the nail-length, not everyone can manage long nail. If we do a lot of typing or housework , play the guitar or are a sports freak, long nail are not for us.





File rather than cut as cutting weaken the nail and cause it to flake. File in one direction only from sides to centre, using the softer side of an emery board, not a metal file. Aim for a rounded tip: the shape at the tip should reflect the shape at the base to make a perfect oval.How can i care my nails ?

A buffer is fine -- also powder calcium should always be added to the diet.
keep it clean
keep them clean, dont cut cuticles...just push them back with a cuticle pusher, filing them will help if your nails tend to break, give yourself a manicure once a week. If you're going to paint them make sure you use a basecoat so your nails will be protected. Don't get artificial nails. You will ruin your nails in the long run and they become weak and brittle. Also it can grow fungus.
Keep it clean always. Don't have that biting nails habit or use it like a screw driver tool. Trim it regularly at least once a week.
